Boot 132 I've never tried it, but people love it in general.
I highly recommend the USB method, because there is alot, ALOT of editing to get a stable setup. It is all very easy, but it does take time, and from what I've seem its harder to recover from KP in SL than in L.
Once everything is edited, install is a breeze.
So far I've gotten everything except SD which I havent started searching but have a pretty good idea.
Also, I read somewhere that most of Apple products except servers will boot in 32bit. Macbooks through iMac, dont know about the big Mac Pro's though.
But, 64 is working here !

Hi Gurruwiwi,
It is really fantastic that you were able to boot into 64 bit SL. As you had mentioned, would you be able to create a step by step guide on installing 64 bit SL?
Also, I'm confused on which notebook to buy:
I'm eyeing on the following:
1. ASUS VX5 Lamborghini w/ NVIDIA GeForce GT130M
2. Asus G51 or G60
3. Acer Aspire AS8930-7665
4. HP HDX 16t or 18t
5. Dell Studio 14z [specs: IntelŽ Core™ 2 Duo T9550 (2.66GHz/1066Mhz FSB/6MB cache), 5GB Shared Dual Channel DDR3 at 1066MHz, 14.0” High Definition+ (900p) Bright LED Display with TrueLife™, Dell Wireless 1515 Wireless-N Mini-card, Dell Wireless 365 Bluetooth Internal (2.1), Soundblaster X-Fi Hi Def Audio, Back-lit Keyboard, NVIDIAŽ GeForceŽ 9400M G].
I would like to go for Quad core (Q9000 etc) and also DDR3 RAM. But, at the same time, going for a 18.4 inch would be a huge (desktop in your hands) which I don't prefer.
I'm a no gamer at all but heavily into DV/HD editing. Do you think Dell Studio 14z would be the best option. If I'm getting Dell 14z, I would also get a external BluRay burner. The two annoying things about Dell 14z is non-availability of quad core CPU and 900p LCD instead of true 1080p (1920x1080).
Also, on your signature, I'm seeing a link for your tutorial. What is that? As someone asked, the best approach is to have a bootable SL on a 8GB flash drive with modified kexts?
Thanks.
